I changed the script around a little bit. The "*." in many of the $LS_COLORS items is causing the problem. I couldn't figure out how to fix it in the for loop echo -e so I used sed to change the values before entering the loop. The 7 in 7z was also causing some issues, at least on my system. Here is the end result that I think does what you want:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
# color_meanings: explain meanings of colors used in bash ls

CLEAN_COLORS=`echo $LS_COLORS | sed -e 's/\*\.//g'`
{
        IFS=:
        for i in $CLEAN_COLORS
        do
		echo -e "\e[${i#*=}m$( x=${i%=*};echo "$x")\e[m"
        done
}
